The Hawks who have been playing shorthanded during the Christmas season with some players away on holidays expect to be back at full strength Friday night when they will be at home at the Exeter arena at 8:30 p.m. to the league leading Belmont Ronwood Athletics. Sunday night the Hawks travel to Lucan to renew their rivalry with the Lucan lush.. After a scoreless first period, the Irish club took a 3-1 margin after two periods of play and broke the game wide open with five unanswered goals in the third period. Close to seven minutes had elapsed in the second period before Jim Maguire of Lucan opened the game scoring on a three-way passing effort with Craig Corman and Randy Kraul. Less than a minute later at 7.27 Ed Robb converted a pass from captain Ron Funston and the Irish were ahead 2-0. The Lucan Lead went quickly to three goals at 8.22 when Randy Kraul finish- ed off a neat three-way passing combination with Gary Isaac and Jim Maquire. The lone Exeter marker of the game was provided by Noel Skinner at 10.11 of the same period on a pass from Brian Taylor. The five Lucan counters in the final period came from the sticks of five different players. At 3.51, Ron Funston hit on a pass from Cec Nickles and six minutes later Jim Maguire blinked the red light behind the Exeter net with the assist going to Cec Nickles. An unassisted goal by Mike McIntyre at 13.46 put the Lucan club into a comfortable 6-1 lead. Before the game came to a close Randy Kraul counted from Jim Maguire and Ed Robb finished off a three-way passing effort with Gary Herr and Ron Funston. While penalties were numerous throughout the only fighting assessment came with only 13 � . conds remaining in the game. Craig Corman of the Irish receiv- ed a game misc onduct for being the aggressor along with a five minute fighting and a two minute holding penalty. In the same incident, Matt Muller of the Hawks got two minutes for holding. The first Lucan goal of the game was scored with the Hawks playing shorthanded and the next two scores for the winners were notched with the two teams playing five aside. In the third period, the final three Lucan goals came as the result of a rash of Exeter penalties. LOSE IN PORT Three unanswered goals in the third period allowed the Port Stanley Lions to post a 6-3`victory over the Exeter Hawks in OHA Junior "D" league play in Port Stanley, Sunday night. Each team scored one goal in the first period and two in the middle frame before the home club broke the game open in the final 20 minutes of play. The Exeter goal in the first period came from the stick of Brian Taylor on a three-way effort with Rick Mommersteeg and Matt Muller. The first Hawks marker in the second session was chalked up by Rick Ingram on a pass from Brian Taylor. Brian Taylor completed his club's scoring as he converted passes from Den McKellar and Rick Mom- mersteeg. Golden Glimpses i BLUE WATER REST HOME'. It was nice that the weather man smiled on us for the Holi- day Season making travelling so much less hazardous for all who had to be on the highways. Little by little the days are beginning to lengthen always bringing us closer to sunnier days. Many of our readers may be curious as to who the lucky win- ners were for our Christmas draw. Mrs. Frieda Keller, Dash- wood, was the lucky winner of the quilt pieced by Mrs. Mary Weston and quilted by the resi- dents. The place mat set made by Mrs. Susie Snider was won by Mrs. Dorothy Bedard, Zurich. We would like to thank all who helped make this project a real success. We are very grateful to Mrs. Charles Chrysler for the gift of a beautiful punch bowl which will be very useful. The Young People's group from Dashwood Lutheran Church visited and provided a musical program for the residents over the holiday season, also a group from the Zurich Mennonite Church which we appreciated very much. January is usually a long, cold, quiet month. If there are any groups in the area who might like to entertain the residents for an hour during an afternoon or even- ing, it would help to pass the long days and would be very much appreciated. Bingo was played on Friday evening followed by refresh- ments. The Sunday evening chapel service was cancelled due to the blustery weather. Wash rooms still ro The year 1976 should be almost a repeat performance of 1975 for the Grand Bend village council if Monday night's regular session was an indicator. Dogs, washrooms and bylaw enforcement were among the main items up for discussion Monday as solutions to the prob- lems encountered in 1975 have yet to be solved. The public washroom facilities on the tourist resort's main street was the most serious of the topics involved as some of the council- lors carne up with some humour- ous solutions when it came to the problem of dogs. The village and the main street merchants were notified by letter in the fall that an improve- ment in public washrooms would be demanded next summer by the Lambton County Health Unit. The letter stated that the present public facilities, if kept open for longer hours, would be suitable as a temporary measure until the installation of sanitary sewers allowed washrooms to be built without space consuming septic tanks. 'We can't wait for the sewers, even if we have to assess the stores for the extra cost.' said councillor Robert Baird. He sug- gested a system of payment similar to the system used by the village in paying for the PARK GODCRICH 30 THE 5011411E PHONE 524.7811 41R CONDITIONED THURS. JAN. 8 to SAT.

Councillor Baird said he felt the Chamber of Commerce would co-operate with the council. He said considerable work would have to be done on the present facilities even though they would be used only as a temporary measure. '1s it going to require super- vision?' asked councillor Robert Simpson, bringing up a point discussed a t great length last fall. Councillor Harold Green inter- jected stating he would not accept the public wahsrooms being open any later than they were last year. Closing time last summer was nine o'clock in the evening. He contended that the stores were closed at nine o'clock and he couldn't agree to assess- ing stores for the cost of pro- viding washrooms for people on the street until 'the middle of the night'. Councillor Roland Grenier switched the subject to canine problems stating that the village was going to have to do some- thing about the dogs running at large in the village. He sug- gested advertising for a dog catcher. 'But what do we do with then when we catch them?' ashed councillor Robert .Simpson. 'Where would we keep them?' Councillor Baird's suggestion that council hire a man and give him a shotgun was met with opposition by councillor Green who suggested it was the owners not the dogs, that should be shot. DANCE ZURICH COMMUNITY CENTRE FRI JAN.9 CONTINUOUS MUSIC 9-1 A.M, LESPERANCE TRIO PLUS You And Me Obituary VALERIE MARIE LAPORTE CANTIN On Tuesday, December 30, 1975 the community was shocked by the death of Valerie Cantin of St. Joseph in her 79th year. She was born January 12, 1896 and was the eldest daughter of the late Charles and Marguarite LaPorte, St. Peters Parish, St. Joseph. On March 1,1916, 59 years ago, Valerie was married to Napoleon A. Cantin who pre- deceased her on March 20, 1953. They were married in St. Peters Church, St. Joseph by the Rev. Father Rondat, then parish priest, From this union twelve children were born -- seven sons and five daughters, five having predeceased her, two daughters, Dorisse and Theresa and three sons, Charles, Eugene and Oliver. Her remain- ing children are Napoleon, Pierre, Jean Paul, Andre, Mrs. Victor Brisson (Gabrielle), Mrs. Valerie M. Schutz, all of Detroit and Mrs. George Ducharme (Yvonne) of Mitchell, Ontario. Mrs. Cantin also leaves 43 grandchildren and 20 great grandchildren. The deceased was also one of a family of twelve children --also seven boys and five girls. Surviv- ing are Mr. Noel LaPorte and Mrs. Geraldine Charrette of St. Joseph Parish, Mrs. Cecilia Gerornette of Detroit and Mrs. Marie Corriveau of London. Mrs. Cantin was a compass- ionate person and a very devoted member of her church. It was in her home at St. Joseph that the late Frere Andre visited and lived for a few weeks in October 1917 and 1922. It was through her dedication and devotion to St. Joseph, patron saint of Canada, that the wish of Frere Andre and her late husband, Napoleon A. Cantin, was accomplished. A statue of St. Joseph was erected on the exact site that Brother Andre had chosen. Mrs. Cantin has donated the St. Joseph Memorial Park for the joy of travellers who may wish to delay a little at the corner of Highway 21 and 84. A solemn Mass was celebrated at St. Peters Church, St. Joseph, by the parish priest, Father J. Bensette. Interment was in St. Peter's Cemetery. Pallbearers were the grandsons of the dec- eased.
